Recycled plastic to cut damage risk
Castleford, United KingdomToyota Material Handling UK (TMHUK) is offering hand pallet truck chocks to help customers reduce damage. The chock is designed to secure an unladen hand pallet truck of any make, and prevent it from rolling away in loading areas or moving around in vehicles.
The lightweight recycled plastic construction is moulded to keep the hand pallet truck rear wheel secure, while rubber stoppers on the bottom combine with the weight of the hand pallet truck to hold the chock securely into position, helping to reduce the risk of damage and increase safety while in transit.
